Subject: [PATCH 0/6] cciss: Feb 22, 2010 updates

The following series implements mostly minor fixes.
Hoisted a tag masking operation out of a loop. Inform
the controller that we're using 32-bit tags. Mask off
low error bits prior to calling pci_free_consistent.
Removed an unnecessary cast of kmalloc return value.
Fixed a missing command status of CMD_UNABORTABLE.
Added cciss_tape_cmds module parameter to allow reserving
more commands for use with SCSI tape drives.

Subject: [PATCH 2/6] cciss: Inform controller we are using 32-bit tags.

From: Stephen M. Cameron <[email protected]>

Controller will transfer only 32-bits on completion if it
knows we are only using 32-bit tags. Also, some newer controllers
apparently (and erroneously) require that we only use 32-bit tags,
and that we inform the controller of this.

Subject: [PATCH 6/6] cciss: add cciss_tape_cmds module paramter

From: Stephen M. Cameron <[email protected]>

This is to allow number of commands reserved for use by SCSI tape drives
and medium changers to be adjusted at driver load time via the kernel
parameter cciss_tape_cmds, with a default value of 6, and a range
of 2 - 16 inclusive. Previously, the driver limited the number of
commands which could be queued to the SCSI half of the the driver
to only 2. This is to fix the problem that if you had more than
two tape drives, you couldn't, for example, erase or rewind them all
at the same time.

+There is a cciss_tape_cmds module parameter which can be used to make cciss
